Eastside Catholic Crusaders' Flag Football Talent Poised to Capitalize on Growing Scholarship Opportunities
As the WIAA's flag football pilot program expands into new districts, Texas athletes are gaining access to verified scholarship pathways. The University of Nebraska, set to launch its inaugural 2028 season, is a Power 4 program led by coaches Liz and Katie Sowers. Nebraska is offering scholarships in flag football. Ottawa University, Kansas, a national powerhouse, awards up to 12 scholarships annually. Keiser University, Florida, and Midland University, Nebraska, are also active recruiters. While UT Arlington is developing its program, it has not yet begun offering scholarships. Eastside Catholic Crusaders, a 3A powerhouse from Sammamish, is well-positioned to capitalize on these opportunities. Athletes interested in pursuing flag football scholarships should research and reach out to these programs directly to learn more about their recruitment processes and requirements.
